|title=Mad in the Back
|rating=3.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=Mum is setting off on a long car journey with two kids in the back - did I hear you groan? Mum groaned too because she ''knew'' what was going to happen. She told the kids before she set off that they had to behave because she couldn't drive properly if the kids were going ''mad in the back''. The kids told her not to worry - and off they went. Then the kids started ''The Moaning''. Every parent will know exactly what this means: requests for drink, food, windows open... Then the squabbling starts: accusations that ''HE'' has got my book, ears are bitten by ''HER''. Mum tries diversionary tactics: ''look out of the window - there's a lamp-post''. (Yes MUm - we know desperation when we hear it.) And it gets worse. And worse. Then Mum snaps.

|summary=(By the way there are spoilers ahead – this is definitely a series to be read in order, starting from [[Tesla 1 by Mark Lingane|Tesla 1]] ). Alone again now that Melanie has been killed, Sebastian makes it to North America. Far from it being the land of promise it used to be, the country is now an apocalyptic ruin, full of people scavenging for their survival and the Infected forging a path of worse-than-death and destruction. Sebastian needs to focus on his ultimate challenge as foreseen in a rather scary way but there's a small matter distracting him: who's firing rockets at him?
